Lucca Hopstaken, Jendo Derksen
For this project, I collaborated with Lucca Hopstaken on the Beatbox v2: an interactive music installation that allows users to use music loops through a tactile, puzzle-like interface with synchronized visual feedback.
My main focus was on 3D modeling and animation in Blender. I developed the visual identity for each musical theme by creating moodboards in PureRef and designing 3D models that reflect the character of the audio tracks. I also established a clear naming and folder structure to streamline the workflow between Blender and Unity, ensuring smooth integration of models and animations.
The result is a cohesive and engaging system where each of the three thematic boxes has its own unique identity and is designed in a way that is easily understandable, significantly elevating the quality and user experience compared to the first version.
By combining thoughtful visual design, structured collaboration, and detailed animation, we created an intuitive and immersive device that makes playing with music accessible and visually stimulating.
